Commercial Finance For Pubs

Commercial Finance For Pubs

Buying and running, or buying a pub to develop and sell, could be an expensive but rewarding venture, especially if you find the right property and location.

There are a number of costs associated with the purchase of a pub including: the purchase price, planning permission, potential licensing costs, legal fees, development costs and other unforeseeable costs.

In addition, there are certain expenses that you will incur if you are looking to start running a pub. For example you will likely need working capital to pay staff salaries, cleaning costs, utilities, drinks, equipment hire, insurance, repairs and miscellaneous costs such as beer garden equipment.

The aforementioned costs could run into the hundreds of thousands. Unless you have access to a substantial amount of capital, then you will probably need to approach a lender for funding.

Traditional Lenders

The commercial market is competitive, which often means having readily available finance could be the difference between securing your pub and losing out to another buyer. In any commercial venture, time is of the essence.

It may not be your best option to approach a traditional lender for commercial finance, as traditional lenders’ applications can take up to several weeks or months to process.

It is possible to access commercial finance when time is tight through specialist lenders. If you need commercial finance, it is advisable to contact a professional broker.

What Our

Clients Say

The team at Clifton Private Finance has been outstanding, not only in helping me to obtain a mortgage on a slightly unusual home, but also in continuing to provide support and liaise with the lender and solicitors through to completion. Thank you for making the process of buying my first home much easier.

I was incredibly lucky to find Clifton Private Finance after a search on line as their service has been more than exemplary. My point of contact was Sam 0’Neill and he was happy to help at every stage during the application of the bridging loan, making a stressful process much easier to deal with. He was always available by phone or email and gave prompt answers to queries I had as well as always getting back to me when he said he would. That to me is excellent customer service and I cannot thank him personally or the company enough for the support they have given me.

Adam cannot thank you enough for all your support throughout this arrangement. You have gone more than the extra mile to support us. Without you we would not have got our dream retirement home.
You have been most professional and personable. Liz and I would be more than happy if you wanted to use us a reference with respect to any future clients.

Nigel & Liz K - Bristol

You have certainly shown me that you do everything for your clients, including tolerating their excessive emails and questions for updates.
I have been kept in the loop, from yourself, about why the delays were occurring (Nationwide, post etc) which I would like to highlight that I really appreciated.
I certainly will be able to recommend you to others as and when the need arises.

Mr Morris

I recently contacted Clifton Private Finance after a Google search for bridging finance providers and was immediately struck by their efficiency and support. Forms were emailed over almost immediately and the necessary finance was arranged within a few days. None of the other companies I contacted came close to their professionalism, and the quote that I eventually received was impressive. Thank you Adam, your help has enabled us to reserve the house that we wanted and I certainly recommend you to others.

Mr M. R. - Oxford

Absolutely brilliant. The service was first class, got everything sorted efficiently and were always friendly. Any fees were negligible compared to the service offered.
Robert was particularly outstanding.

Charles N

My advisor, Robert, was very helpful in finding the mortgage to suit me. He kept me up to date throughout the process and dealt with any issues when they arose.

Rowena C

I have received fantastic service from your company from my first moment of contact. Adam Arnott has been dealing with my application and has kept me informed throughout the normally stressful process.
